But If I DO get first I would shit my pants lol.

haha well at least you do aim for a top three place For now I'd be happy with one of the 25 semi-finalists though o.O But I still want to become first ;D
and I recommend you: don't shit your pants.. it gets messy inside there..

This on itself is an awesome piece of artwork. I do, however, wonder if this will work because for example you cannot see his legs.. that means that they will still have to fill in the rest of his body to get a full design if you see what I mean. It's nothing against you or your work, it's just a question that I have.. how will they judge? Will they go for design over artwork or for artwork over design. Because for artwork this is very good but for a design it is not fully visible and therefore I think less good. The creature could even have a tail if you see what I mean..

YannickBouchard In reply to Paulbosch [2011-05-19 18:10:09 +0000 UTC]

I dunno, we'll see. It's not meant to be in the game anyway, so I don't think it matters that much if we don't see the creature completely. I decided to favor artwork over design, but that's a personal decision. I think this creature, being a part of his environment, can't be without it; it just has more impact this way I believe.

Paulbosch In reply to YannickBouchard [2011-05-19 18:34:09 +0000 UTC]

What do you mean: It's not meant to be in the game anyway?
I personally favor artwork over design as well but since the contest is for most part about the design.. well anyway they also judge on technical skill and impact and your art certainly lives up to those things so I think you still have a good chance I wish you good luck on the contest!

YannickBouchard In reply to Paulbosch [2011-05-19 18:48:13 +0000 UTC]

Well, what I meant is that they are not going to use the actual winning entry of this contest to create a monster that they would include in the game.

Paulbosch In reply to YannickBouchard [2011-05-19 18:57:00 +0000 UTC]

they won't?? Oh then I misunderstood the contest.. Then what IS it for?
If that is the case then design is a lot less important than I thought!

Wicasa-stock In reply to Paulbosch [2011-05-19 19:30:31 +0000 UTC]

Of course they will use the winning design. I don't know what he's smoking. The won't use your art directly but most likely use it as reference and recreate the creature using their own software. They are buying the rights to the design and will make it an animated creature but it will still be the one you designed. The more detail they get, the less work they have to do in the long run.

Paulbosch In reply to Wicasa-stock [2011-05-20 11:36:19 +0000 UTC]

Was hoping for that.. I mean IF you win (not that my stakes are very high -.-''), but IF, you certainly want to see your winning design back in game.. how awesome would that be xD

YannickBouchard In reply to Wicasa-stock [2011-05-19 19:55:47 +0000 UTC]

Yeah? I didn't see that... Where did you find that info? Maybe I have read the contest rules too quickly...

Wicasa-stock In reply to YannickBouchard [2011-05-20 16:48:46 +0000 UTC]

It's kind of obvious. You won't be designing the entire character yourself. They are basically paying you for the rights to your character design so they can render their own version of it in the game. You just have to submit a 2D image for reference.

Well every game can be expanded with new creatures, zones and characters right? Actually it is even possible that the current game is not yet finished.. There has been a lot of games that came out while some zones were still unavailable.
